It is said most of the billionaire fundraising comes from small donations, rather than wealthy donors, indicating the President’s “average American” base will be key to his alleged re-election campaign.

More than £2.4 million ($3 million) of individual contributions were new donations between the January 1 and March 31 filing window, according to the report.

Many of the donations have allegedly been made specifically for the 2020 primary race, which will decide whether Mr Trump will be nominated the Republican candidate for the Presidential general election later that year.
